Let's Do It!

if you're someone who reads this blog with any kind of regularity, you probably care about fairness, justice, civil rights, and equity. If that's the case for you, and you live in Oregon, here's a chance to prove it. I just received this from the Oregon Center for Public Policy. I'll be there...will you??

Take Part in Sunday's United for Oregon March
For too long, Oregon has asked low- and middle-income families to sacrifice more
than those who can most afford it. In the current tough times, lawmakers are proposing
large budget cuts that would further harm low- and middle-income Oregonians, those
most hurt by the economic crisis.
It's time for corporations and wealthy Oregonians to pay their fair share.
Make your voice heard and demand better!

Date: Sunday, June 7
Time: 11:30 a.m.
Place: Downtown Portland. March begins at the Eastbank Esplanade (near OMSI between
SE Main and Taylor), ends at Terry Schrunk Plaza for a rally at 2:00 p.m. (SW 3rd
and Madison).
Event organizers include Oregon PTA, KBOO 90.7, SEIU 503, Jobs With Justice, Children
First For Oregon, AARP, Oregon Education Association, Our Oregon, Keep Oregon Working
Coalition.
